Android Pie Gestures

Hi,

Just updated to Android Pie but I'm missing the gestures control.

Anyone knows if this will be added in a future update?

Regards

My Android Pie gestures control missing as well. Could be a glitch which may be solved with future updates

Or, maybe Google made it exclusive to their Pixel lineup. No one knows, yet.

Hi @DreamerDJ @TheSireLeroy

According to some interviews at Xperia XZ3 launch, Sony won't adopt gesture navigation.

Can we make them implement it? Or at least give us the option to enable the feature. I was really hoping to get the new gesture navigation on my xz2 compact.

I hope they are going to implement it, although I also read that it is optional for manufacturers with custom rom.

So it'll be a wait-and-see.

Thanx anyway.

No my friend, you are wrong hhhhh.

it's already available on ( Essential phone ) + ( OnePlus 6 ) + ( Nokia 7 Plus ) with Android Pie - 9.0

which means, it's not Exclusive for Google Pixel phones !

Just got the Android Pie but can't find the new gesture navigation system . Any body find it?

no gesture navigation in pie ?

Why there is no gesture navigation in pie ? I saw it in bêta version, so why Sony disabled this features.

It appears to have been disabled. The option in settings to enable it (as per the Pie beta) is now missing.

They could at least had it default to the old way and give us the option. I just got used to the new gesture navigation and feels like a step backwards for no reason

I was updated, it's a pity that I do not have it, will it be implemented at some point?

Xz2c doesn't have gesture functions in 9.0 update!

ijongha29 — Thu, 18 Oct 2018 17:20:58 GMT

During the beta test, the gesture function was available on xz2, but the official update did not include gestures on both xz2 and xz2c. I thought it was one of the main features of the 9.0 update, but it is not included. I hope that the future update will include the gesture function.

Biggest Fail No Gesture Navigation

Gesture navigation with Android Pie was the most anticipated feature by many and one of the best features with Android Pie. Why would you even consider removing it??

Doesn't feel like an upgrade. Honestly I'd rather have the old firmware since this was the only thing I was looking forward to.

Sony has lost many fans to competitors and something like this would only make more people leave.

I've been using only Sony for years, and to be honest, for the first time I'm really admiring other phones and starting to feel jealous they've got all these lovely features and UI.

I'm very disappointed, I only signed up to post this. Sony is being very poor at some important things and it makes me very sad.

Just below, the moderators answered this question handed to the developers. The reason for their absence is not compatible with the Sony launcher, create a new one this summer. A little patience, this is not the final build of Android 9.0
